Race Analysis
MELANITE (1) turned in a modest performance when third last start over 5f at Wyong, beaten 4 lengths after being prominent at the bend. That followed a good when resuming win at Gold Coast. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is right in contention. PENPEL (3) is a promising type who hasn't raced since finishing 4. 5 lengths away in ninth over 5½f at Warwick Farm on October 15. Fitter for a recent trial win. Among the leading chances. RAJWA (4) was a winner in a at this track then was competitive last time when fourth over 6¼f at this track, beaten only 1. 5 lengths. Should be poised just off the lead. Sure to be competitive. LIGHTHOUSE LASS (8) settled towards the tail then wound up strongly to finish 2. 25 lengths away in second when resuming last start over 5½f at Gosford. Will be tough to stop again.
